lol. Well I think it is supposed to be easier to leanr to drive an auto than a manual so if its speed of learning you want then I don't think you have anything to worry about. I chose to learn manual to have a choice over any car rather than limit myself, but it is harder and takes longer to learn.

Hints:

Learn to drive in a small engine 4 banger.
Speed limit is limit for a new driver.
Seasoned pros drove in fast and furious, do not try anything you've seen on TV.
Keep your leg on the brake, only slowly tap on throttle until you become familiar with its response.
You can get your license in 2 weeks, but it will take you 2 years average to know how to drive(believe me on this one)

viperman:

hehehe, amigoz don't worry. It's easy and fun.

With that kind of encouragement, I hope to be driving independently b4 d end of the year .  Thx Viperman

Siena:

Good luck, Amigoz. Lessons are fun, with the right instructor.

I passed my test in '87, first time.

Manual.

Thanks a lot Siena.  I will bear the fun bit in mind when I go 4 my lessons, I Pray I also pass 1st time. 
You must be a Pro now, with 20years experience!
That will be me one day and hopefully I will be sayin the same things to learners then i.e if cars are still been driven on the road and not in the sky 

sultaan:

Broken any headlight yet?

Nah, havent broken any, I am a careful learner  _{c i nearly wrote driver dere, I sppse I am a driver} 

Brosgaby:

oh yes i did broke 1 headlight when i was learning in 1980 and my dad was like "what are u thinking" has he was my instructor then.

Hmm brosgaby, u still remember the first headlight you broke since 1980, u must be a conscious driver o

@topic
I have gone 4 my second lesson 2day, and im already doing manouveres, did a turn in the road. Wasnt too bad, but im still tryin to think about how i get my points where i need to turn and lock the wheel depending on which way im going.  Gosh I have probably confused u all with all that mumbo jambo  , but if you understand wot im yappin about feel free to give me any tips or ask me more questions.

Second lesson and Im loving it.

yvy1:

Where are you? If you dey naija you for don learn tey tey then all you's be doing will be to pass the text in the UK because by now u s'pose din sabi drive and should be able to struggle with the bullion drivers and bus conductors in Mile 2

shocks:

driving is just like learning to walk. it gets easier as the days go by. soon it will become instinctive and you'll wonder why you were scared in the first place. all the best.

naija_diva:

driving is real easy. i've been driving since i was 16 and enjoy it very much, except for when people start bothering you to take them all over town.

Sista u make me laugh  and here is me thinkin i cant wait to drive peeps around town  im sure i will get tired of it once i become pro.  thx 4 d encouragement
